    Asthma I get as a limiting condition, but that has to be taken in the context of the individual.

    Ance? This has to be facemask related?

  2. I remember trying to join about 15 years ago as a pretty lost 17 year old and was basically laughed out the building by a couple of arrogant dismissive toffs when I said I had asthma.

    Getting desperate I see.

    Pretty cool! I have asthma on my medical record but run 3x a week and haven’t used a pump in 20 years

  4. well as an acne ridden asthmatic gamer looks like my future is finally looking brighter, im sure my cardio and stress activated asthma wont case any issues in intense combat situations

    Police and firefighters can have asthma so as long as it’s well controlled, no recent asthma attacks, triggers are not exercise or smoke etc I see no reason why army potentials would be restricted due to asthma

    Acne is a bit tight..surprised it was banned initially

  6. “If you are a top gamer, your country needs you” sweet jesus. Let’s put him in a hundred league lobbies on euw in low masta, let’s see if he still thinks that. I can guarantee you wouldn’t want any of these people anywhere near a dangerous weapon.

    Can anybody find a link to this gamer drone recruitment area? I’m, frankly, sick of dead end sales and I am considering this at this point.
